Chapter 337 Tengshe Qionghua
Chapter 337 Tengshe Qionghua
Gu Yuchuan was on the water. The dragon's body was incredibly powerful, and it possessed a majestic divine might. The humans in Yaoguang City felt its immense power. The pressure of a true dragon could suppress humans. This was a rule established since the time of Emperor Xuanyuan, and it was also the reward that the dragon race received for helping the human race. It was something that they could not resist.
His vertical pupils were filled with killing intent: "You few think you can stop me? Although you are all cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, the difference between Golden Core cultivators is still very large. Today, I will show you what a true prodigy is. When you arrive in the Underworld, remember my name: Azure Dragon Demon King Gu Yuchuan."
Master Qinghai spat and said, "You're just a worthless beast. What are you? You're lucky to have been born in your Qingyun Realm. If you had been born in our Canglan Realm, you would have become our food long ago. Maybe I could even make a garment out of your skin."
A white snake appeared beneath Gu Yuchuan. The snake was much smaller than Gu Yuchuan, but it was as white as jade, looking very pure and beautiful, making people want to caress it.
The story of the white snake begins ten days ago. Ten days ago, Gu Yuchuan happened to reach the core area of the Cangzhu River, which is also the deepest part, where the water is over 10,000 meters deep. He sensed that there was a demon hiding in the deepest part of the water, a member of the aquatic race. The creature's cultivation level was not high, but its bloodline concentration was quite good; it was actually a high-grade spirit beast.
He immediately manipulated the water flow to go find her.
When he saw the white snake, he was already stunned. This white snake was not following the path of transforming into a dragon, but the path of a soaring serpent. This was a path that did not belong to the dragon race at all, and in some ways, it was even more powerful than the dragon race.
The Tengshe, with its human head and snake body, immediately evokes images of two supreme deities: Nuwa and Fuxi. Nuwa is now a Heavenly Saint, and Fuxi is a Human Emperor, both immortal and indestructible beings. To be associated with them is to be extraordinary.
The Tengshe clan was an experiment conducted by the goddess Nuwa before she created humans. She first sculpted the Tengshe clan in her own image. Later, Nuwa brought the Tengshe clan to the Nuwa Heaven and carefully taught them. Compared to the fate of humans, they were more like Nuwa's own children; after all, they looked the same, yet were treated differently.
However, this white snake is still a snake, possessing only a trace of the Teng Snake bloodline. Like the dragon race, it can only be considered a true beginner when it reaches the stage of a mythical beast, and only when it reaches the stage of a divine beast can it be considered a true member of its race.
The white snake was terrified when she saw Gu Yuchuan, but her eyes also held a longing in them. This puzzled Gu Yuchuan, because demons are supposed to be courageous and shouldn't be so timid.
The white snake's voice was very sweet: "Who are you? You're so high-profile, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the humans? You should be careful, the humans will kill us."
It turned out she was terrified by the humans. Well, there are no demons in the Canglan Realm. With her bloodline and no strength, she would definitely be hunted down. Fortunately, the Cangzhu River is in its core area, where the water is deep. The cultivators who can go down are all powerful Nascent Soul cultivators who don't care about her. Those who can't go down can't do anything to her, which is why she was able to survive. But she knows that after she achieves Golden Core, it will be her death day.
Gu Yuchuan felt that taking her in as a subordinate was a good choice; with her talent and lineage, she would definitely be a good subordinate in the future.
From birth, she had been hunted down by cultivators from the Canglan Realm and had no feelings for it. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was a good idea.
"Are you willing to follow me? I am not a demon of this world. In our world, the demon race is very powerful. I have my own territory. As long as you become my subordinate, I can take you back to my world. From then on, you will no longer have to hide here and live in constant fear. I can even train you in cultivation. However, you must remain absolutely loyal."
His eyes lit up instantly, and he spoke much faster, clearly very anxious: "Really? I'm willing. I can give you an inch of my soul, so you can kill me anytime. I will never betray you, as long as I can survive outside and not be like a rat in a gutter."
Gu Yuchuan thought for a moment, then accepted the wisp of divine soul. He still needed to be on guard: "Don't worry about that. From now on, you can live according to your own wishes. In our Qingyun Realm, the status of the demon race is very high. They can even go shopping in the human race's imperial city."
The white snake burst into tears of excitement. She had thought that this was the end of her life, that she would only live at the bottom of the cold river, and that her death would come after she advanced to the Golden Core stage. But things had taken an unexpected turn, and she had such a fortunate opportunity. She was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty, I will be extremely loyal from now on. I will also cultivate diligently and strive to serve Your Majesty."
Gu Yuchuan nodded: "Alright, then come with me. I'm currently practicing the Dragon Ascension Technique. You come with me, and once I'm done, I'll take you straight back. Don't worry, this Dragon Ascension Technique was personally planned by a Nascent Soul stage Venerable, so there won't be any problems. I'll give instructions to the Venerable above to protect you. It's not easy to have such a subordinate, I won't let anything happen to you. Let's go."
The white snake, named Qionghua, followed Gu Yuchuan. She kept looking at the surrounding scenery, which was very strange, as it was an area she had never dared to come to before.
Gu Yuchuan contacted the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor in the sky, asking him to take extra care to protect his newly acquired subordinate. The Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor did not have this obligation, but he saw Gu Yuchuan's potential and future and felt it was necessary to befriend him in advance. Naturally, he happily agreed and assured him that there would be absolutely no problems.
And so, the scene just now unfolded, with Qionghua following Gu Yuchuan to Yaoguang City.
Upon seeing Qionghua, Qinghai Zhenren became even angrier: "You audacious snake demon, as a cultivator of our Canglan Realm, you actually colluded with the demons of the Qingyun Realm. Your crimes are unforgivable."
Qionghua's voice was icy: "The Canglan Realm has never given me a way to live. I wanted to live, but luckily I met the Great King and survived. You bunch of chickens and dogs, why don't you retreat at once? How dare you stop my Great King from advancing? You don't know what's good for you."
Master Qinghai was so angry that his face turned pale. Master Yunhai stepped forward and said, "Alright, no need to say anything more. Prodigy, enter the formation. Let's see who's the real deal."
